For the story, noone seems to be using SCCS anyway… please drop me a line if you do, because when you type SCCS Documentation in google , the 3rd result is some guy asking for documentation… back in 1995!!!

I couldn’t post over the end of 2006 while I spent of the festive period back in France (which by the way reminds me of wishing you a happy new year), but here we are, back again with a lot of good resolutions.

I had a look this morning at the statistics of the Who’s Who in France browser access, and I could have shown yet another graph of Internet Explorer 7 taking ground over other versions of I… but it would have been a repeat of last post’s graph showing that IE7 use (nearly 17%) just has gone over Firefox (just 12%) and other browers (about 12%).

Instead I chose to draw a graph of the use of Internet Explorer (any version) over the past two years:

Internet Explorer has lost about 14% market share over the course of 2005 and 2006; and it looks like a pretty steady curve. If the trend is continued and Internet Explorer 7 doesn’t catch up (it doesn’t look like Vista is going to catch up soon neither), we could see something like Internet Explorer being taken over by another browser (Firefox 3?) in the next 2 to 3 years period.

It looks like people are starting to get used to something else than Microsoft’s browsing software… anyone in the run to create a brand new browser?
